Motivated by the slow learning properties of multilayer perceptrons (MLPs) which utilize computationally intensive training algorithms, such as the backpropagation learning algorit...
The problem of computing the chromatic number of a P5-free graph (a graph which contains no path on 5 vertices as an induced subgraph) is known to be NP-hard. However, we show tha...
We give a deterministic algorithm to find the minimum cut in a surface-embedded graph in near-linear time. Given an undirected graph embedded on an orientable surface of genus g,...
Ideally, a multi-strategy learning algorithm performs better than its component approaches. RISE is a multi-strategy algorithm that combines rule induction and instance-based learn...
Multiple sequence alignment is a fundamental problem in computational biology. Because of its notorious difficulties, aligning sequences within a constant band (c-diagonal) is a ...
